The other day Iw as talking with a work colleague (a young lad) about Terra Nova. I haven't seen the show but he loved it. I related a comment forma friend on another forum where they said that the second episode of Terra Nova was a ripoff of Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds". My colleague went "Who's Alfred Hitchcock?". I died a little inside. Anestis. -- Anestis Kozakis | [email protected] | http://www.akozakis.id.au/
